When I recall the past, I remember about princess Gandhari, Prince Ganaburman of 'Kapisa', who used to sing folk-songs in Ceylon, Subarna Islands etc. Now, after passing of days, nobody remembers them at Gandhari or at Kapisa. The same condition will apply to Sonarang also. This has been possible only because of our tendency to forget the past. It is 'said that when Lanka was being divided by Kaln1mi, somebody remarked that Kashmir should he included in Pakisthan while East-Bengal should be included with India. But our Congress leaders of the period did not want to leave Kashmir at any cost. So we lost our mother land and East-Bengal went under Pakisthan only as a result of vested interest of some people. If I want to tell about Sonarang I am to tell at first about dynasty of Dhanwantary Roksha Bansh. This dynasty was established by the great learned man and a devotee Kabiraj Surya Sen. Approximately five hundred years ago, he started living here after coming from Kalia or Senhati. It is said that in his first life he was very fool and also dfd not have any education. At the stage of adolescent once he went to Langal Bandh (at present near Narayan Gang) a1ong with his father Bidyadhar Sen and when he went to bath in Brahmaputra, he was missing. Shri Mohananda Chakraborty of Purapara Village (adjacent to Sonarang) got him and brought him to his home. He also went to bathe in Brahmaputra. Surya Sen could not tell his fathers name nor the address. Shri Chakraborty was a learned man. In his pathasala, many students used to read. At that time Sonarang village was full of jungles and it was not known whether there was any population. However, in the later stage where Bhuyan's of Dakshinpara used to live, was fu11 of deep "jungles. Nobody used to dare to go there even in the day time. One day Mohananda Thakur' asked Surya Sen to bring palm leaves from that jungle. When Surya Sen was trying to cut palm leaves, a big snake surrounded his body. At this, Surya Sen got senseless. Incidentally a sage was passing by that way. When he saw this condition of Surya Sen he asked him to cut the snake. Surya Sen did that and got esc~pe from the victim of the snake ,with the blessing of that sage and under his guidance, the ignorant Surya Sen became a learned man and later on he established that place as his living place. Even when he became rich he did not forget Mohananda Thakur who gave him shelter. He appointed him as his own Purohit and that time onwards the descendants of Mohananda Thakur have been performing the duties of Purohit of the Sen dynasty. At the south side of the village Sonarang, the dwelling house of Surya Sen was built up on a good piece of land. The land was ractangular and plain. This was about six hundred square yards and a little canal full of water sorrounded the building. At the north of this build1ng there was a big tank and inside the building there were two little ponds -- one was at the south of inner apartments and tbe other one was at the east. The west bank of the tank at the east used to have built-up stair-cases and bath-rooms. There are many sayings and stories about this pond and these stories are now like the stories from the "bags of grand mother". But nobody made any effort regarding their reality. One of the stories is that - in this tank a golden boat used to move alongwith a a radder. This boat used to rove automatically when sweet breeze used to prevail. On stopping of such breeze, this boat went down the water. Why this boat used to rove in such way was not known and this is also not mentioned in the stories. It is mentioned however that this boat went down the water for ever when the maid-sweeper struck- it with broom one day and from that day nobody saw the same boat. The second story is that - there was a chain which chained seven Silver-made jars which used to move automatically with murmering sound in the tank. What was inside these was not known. But it is mentioned that when that Sweeper struck the boat with broom, these jars went out of the tank and thereafter nobody heard their sound. The third story 1s that - whenever there was any festival in the house, utensils were available if a message was left for the same at that tank. A list was required to be made of such utensils and dropped into the water of the tank and then automatically the utensils used to come up above the water. After utilisation of the utensils, these were to be left in the water duly cleaned. This system was continueing. Afterwards one boy of the family married a girl of "Patpatta Sen" family of the same village and the newly married girl brought a maid servant who hid one of the utensils. Since there was deficiency in the utensils as a result of this, the utensils did not sunk in the water as per practise. Next time onwards, even after sincere efforts and requests, these utensils were not available. Nobody knew the actual date and time of happening of these incidents but these were being heard from the villagers. From primitive age, these sayings were in abundance among people of all class in the village. I heard these again after many years from an old man of the village who met me in Delhi. He is an orthodox type and he, with simple belief, told these stories once again. Although these stories are unbelievable, but there is no point in disbelieving tbem. The 'devotee seat' of Surya Sen is still in this dwelling house. He attained' Siddhi' on this seat. I have no idea about Siddhi Lava' but I heard it that Surya Sen attained same. It is said that under the seat there are skulls 5 chandals' and it is apparent that Surya Sen used to 'Tantra'. It is a saying that '13th purusa' of Surya Sen will take birth and will again sit on that seat to attain Siddhi. Perhaps that Purusa' has not yet taken birth. because I at least know all the descendants of our family. Besides, that particular devotee seat is out of our reach. This seat is existing in between our dwelling house and dwelling house of Baikuntha Bhuina. Shri Ram Moni Sen of the family tried to sit on that seat with the help of our family purohit but both of them were found in senseless condition at different places at a distance from the seat. I presume the period of Surya Sen as five hundred years ago. Because I am the 13th purusa of Surya Sen. If hundred years are counted in three purusa then Surya Sen might have been in 15th Century. 1 have already said earlier that Surya Sen was belonging to Roksha Dynasty. His ancestor Shri Harsha Sen was the king Iof Sen Bhum . He had two sons - Kamal & Bimal. Kamal was offered the patternal kingdom. Bimal left Sen Bhum and started living in village 'Malancha' near Phulia of Ranaghat of Nadia district, West Bengal. Shri Binayak Sen, son of Bimal was a great learned man. He was a Sabha-pandit of a king of Bengal. In his family a person by name of Roksha was born. From his name, this family was known as Roksha Dynasty and from King Shri Harsha, he was the thirteenth purusa. Surya Sen started living in Sona Rang. From this his descendants are known as Roksha descendants of Sona Rang. Possibly the descendants of Bimal, Binayak Sen, Roksha Sen, etc used to live in village Malancha. But the later history of Roksha family reveals that its '7th purusa' Urdharan Sen is living at Kelihati. There is no proof about who came from Malancha to Senhati, Kalia and when for living purpose. Son of Urdharan Sen, Bidyadhar Sen was living' in Senhati Kalia. Son of Bidyadhar Sen, Surya Sen started living at Sonarang. Whether Surya Sen had any brother and if so, where they would live is not known. Surya Sen was a Kabiraj(Quak Dr). His son Hridayananda Sen and two grand sons Gangadhar Sen and Raghunath Bhuina also were 'Kabirajs'. Incidentally, Kabiraj Raghunath Sen may be referred specially. Raghunath Sen, grandson of Surya Sen was a famous Kabiraj. He treated one, of the wives (Begam) of Nawab of Murshidabad and got her relieved from a serious illness. At this the Nawab was satisfied and pleased and presented him a golden Pallanquin and entitled him as 'Bhuina'. From ,that time his descendants are known as 'Bhuinas'. On seeing the dwelling place of Bhuinas of Sonarang, it seems that during period of Raghunath Sen their condition was very gqod. The elder brother of Raghunath Sen was Gangadhar Sen. His descendants were known as 'Sarkar' 'Laskar' 'Majumdar' & 'Ramakanta' by name at later period. Descendants at Uttar Para, small Uttar Para and at Nairabari all belonged to Roksha dynasty and were sons of Gangadhar. Though they and the Bhuinas were people of one family, yet we have seen that there were no cousin relationship amongst one another. Even Bhuinas did not use to take meal in their house. It seems that between Raghunath Sen and Gangadhar Sen, there was enemity somehow - and as a result of the same the descendants of both these brothers were not having good social relations with one another. Gangadhar Sen established own dwelling house at other place of the village leaving the patternal dwelling house. At later period we find that this Bhuina fam1ly was divided in two groups - Bhuina family of South para and Bhuina family of West para. There is a story behind this partition. But the story is not mere saying but it is a real history. Laxman Sen (son of Raghunath Sen) had two sons Bisweswar and Sibaprasad. At that time, as the social leader of Baidya society - Bhuinas belonging to Roksha dynasty of Sonarang had very popularity. Bisweswar used to ride in every morning and crossed Darwaja of 'Matukpur'. We have seen some parts of long royal road which was famous as Darwaja of Matukpur. It was situated three miles away from our village and is still there. It was 50 yds in breadth and was about one mile in length still then when we saw it. It is said that at that time Choudhurys of 'Na para' were very famous. But since they were lower in caste, marriage negotiations etc were not in custom with them from the side of families of upper caste. Kulins were, however, of separate type. They used to marry where they got Kulins' honour. One day Bisweswarwas passing riding on horse through Darwaja of Matukpur. Then he was caught by Choudhurys of 'Na para and then requested him to marry one girl of their family. When he did not agree he was made captive. Getting the news of it Sibaprasad tried his level best to free his brother. But when he was not successful in his attempts, he sent word to Choudhurys that he himself wanted to marry their girl. He married that girl and freed his brother. But at this the leaf turned over. Thinking that family prestige had gone down, Bisweswar became very angry and then left their dwelling house at Dakshin para and started living at Paschim para. He dispensed with all social relations with his brother. From that onwards the Bhuina family was divided in two groups and Bhuians of Paschim para did not use to take meal it the houses of Bhuians of Dakshin para. Bisweswar was so angry with his brother that he kept his eyes closed when Sibaprasad came to see him before death. In Dacca district Bikrampur pargana is situated. It is a very old place. It was known as Bikramanipur earlier. In Muslim age Capital of East Bengal was Subarna-gram. At that time Bikrampur was named as Rampal. Name of our village was Sonarang. It is said that there was no population. All the village was agricultural field. One agriculturist by name Sona made a high watch-tower (Tong) sitting where from be used to guard the corns. From that Sonar Tong (Tong of Sona) the name Sonarang came. About 1012 villages were under Bikrampur Pargana and the centre star of them was Sonarang. It was rich, it was full of galaxy of educated persons. Area of Sonarang was 159 miles. Population was 1032 according to census of 1891, and 7000 according to census of 1941. The village was deeply populated and there were different paras such as Dakshin para, Uttar para ,or Munshi para, small Uttarpara or Barma para, Gosain para, Paschim para, Kaibarta para, Rakshakanta para, Laskar para and Sarkar para. There we~e 8 big Dighis (big ponds) and more than 70 ponds. These ponds were surrounding the village. There was "Bara Pukur" (big tank) adjacent to dwelling place of Surya Sen. Durgapuja of the village used to be held here only. There was a combined post office in the village. It was established by Shri Baikuntha Roy. I have heard that it was the first post office in Bikrampgr area. The Post office had 8 branches. The Post Master was recognised as one of the principal member of the village. Deul Bari Deul means temple. There were Budha and Hindu Temples in the village. Images belonging to Hindu and Budha gods and goddess were found in these temples. Jaibramha Sar There was a big building by this name. Some well-to-do Brahmin families used to live there. This was a Tole of teaching Sanskrit language in Sonarang. There was a big banion tree in the south corner of this building. Under that tree one sage used to stay who used to utter "Jaibramha Sar" and that is why the place/building is known as "Jaibrahma Sar. Villaae Market There was a market on the land given by Munishi Bari at the south-west side of the village. All necessaries of a family were available there. Besides that, inside the village there were grocery shops of two brothers Jagabandhu Pal and Dinabandhu Pal. Cremation around of the village There was a cremation ground on the land given by Sarkar Bari of the village at the northern corner. Nobody used to go in the night time there. There was a big tree in the cremation ground. It is said that an evil spirit used to move around even in day time. Entrance of the village One had to utilise boat-way to come to the village. There was Railway Station at the bank of Sital-Laksha river and Steamer Station was at Kamala ghat of Dhaleswari river. From that ghat through other canals the boat could come to Nayabazar of Sonarang through canal of Rishi bari. Village Library In 1910-11, there was a library in the village. Biraj Sen used to look after this. It was in the Gupta Bari. Afterwards it was transferred to Roy Bari. Many important books like Encyclopadiea Brittanica were available. Dramatic Society There was a dramatic society 1n the village named as Sonarang Bharati Natya Samiti". The society used to play Theatre etc during Puja days or marriage ceremony etc. Puja and Social functions There ar thirteen functions/Pujas in twelve months as the saying' goes for the Hindus. Sonarang being Hindu village was no exception to this saying. There were functions/Pujas like Durgapuja, Laxmi puja, Kali puja,' Ratha Jatra, Kartick puja, Saraswati puja, Nil puja and Holi etc. In Roy Bari, Ramayana Songs were played during pujas. In 1911, Monmohan Gosai established Ramkrishna Mission in Gosai para. Ramkrishna culture used to be organised from there. Educational institutions in the village There were three Pathsalas, one Sanskrit Tole, a Pathsala for girls and a High School for boys. Baikuntha Roy established Pathsala in 1880-85. This Pathsala became Middle English School later on and in 1901 it became a High School. Shri Sashikumar Sen used to 1ook after the School. After his death Ratneswar Sen took charge of the School, but he used to stay in Munshi ganj and therefore his nephew Nirmal & Sital used to look after the School staying within the village. At first Kalikanta Bandhopadhyay became the Headmaster. Afterwards, Abanimohan Sen got this seat. First Entrance Examination was held in 1902 and Amritlal Majumdar became successful in this Examination. He was nephew of Ratneswar Sen. In second time, Atul Sen, son of brother of Ratneswar Sen passed the examination. This Atul Sen afterwards became D.P.I. after joining Indian Education Service. Amritlal Majumdar became a reputed advocate in Calcutta. The School was going on well. But in 1907, Makhan Sen established a national vidyalaya and many students joined the School. Gradually the old School become very bad- conditioned. Ratneswar Sen also left the School. But at this critical juncture, Mr. Jitendranath Majumdar, grand son of Golok Sen of Munshi para saved the School. He used to live in Sonarang, his matternal uncle's house. The four teachers - Kalikishore Barari, Chandrakanta Ghatak of Pura para, Madhusudan Barari of Khilpara, and Harihar Ganguly of At para - all accepted the charge' of running the School. There was no Headmaster nor any Secretary at that time. In addition to that, there were difference of opinion among the teachers. At that time, a reputed worker Shri Apurba Sen took over the administration of the School and gradually he changed the condition of the School. Good teachers like Ashutosh Sen, M.A. Brajnath Sen, BA, Nirendra Mohan Sen, BA were appointed by him. Education continued to be in very good state. Once the School was burnt by bad elements. But Apurba Sen re-newed the building. He was helped by Roy Bahadur, Lalit Mohan Sen and Ka1i Mohon Das. Girls School For girls, one Pathsala was being organised in the house of Baikuntha Roy. Wife of Baikuntha Roy and his worthy daughter Dakshayani Devi started the School. This Pathsala ran very well. Later on the Pathsala was organised in the house of Govinda Sen of small Uttar para. Afterwards wife of Kali Mohon Das, Smt Chinmoyee Das established Chinmoyee Balika Vidyalaya". At first it" was started as upper primary and then turned into middle school. Mahtab of Muslims At Nayabazar, there was a mahhtab. Moulabi Sahib of the School used to teach there. Kabiraji Education Kabiraj Dinabandhu Roy and Kabiraj Lalit Mohon both used to teach Kabiraji education. National School-cum-National Movement After partition movement of 1905, a big and continuous movement started in Bangladesh. The students who used to take education in towns and used to visit the village in vacation, tried to spread the movements and rouse national spirit amongst the villagers. Sonarang was no exception and all the villagers responded to the national call like Mayer Deowa Mota Kapar Mathai tule ne re Bhai a famous call which was given by Kabi Mukund Das. The Sonarang was really a centre for National movement. A friendly society was created in the village where we all used to learn lathi-p1ay etc. Akhi1a Sen and Dhiren Sen were main patrons. Professor Pramod Sen and Siren Sen of Bombay became very expert 1n 1athi-playing. The villagers gave up all foreign goods and Ratneswar Sen, Mohendralal Sen and Apurba Sen started a weaving centre in the village where weavers of the village started weaving clothes co-operatively and they were able to provide the village-folk their demand for cloth. Makhanlal Sen again gave speed to the movement and he started a National School of "Anushilon Sam1ti" at the village. The famous revolutionary Pulin Das was at the time in Jail. Among the revolutionaries Agni Yuga", the following assembled at Sonarang - Trailokya Chakraborty, Pratu1 Gangu1i, Sasanka Hazra, Asutosh Dasgupta, Rabindra Sen, Ramesh Acharaya, S Birendra Sen (Sonarang) Birendra Sen (Netrabati), Monaranjan Bhattacharjee, Naren Sen, Priyanath Sen. All of them used to live as teacher, or as boatman of boats or as daily labour in disguise, the village was also searched several times by Police for the purpose of arresting the revolutionaries. But they were so alert and protected that Police could not arrest them. Three political murders took place in the village in one night - Kal1binoda Chakraborty, Rasul Miyana and his brother as they were follower and watchers on behalf of British. One day many arms were detected in the vacant rooms of the house of Satya Lasker but the Govt could not detect the main leaders behind such activities. So punitive police was deployed at the village to harass the villagers un-necessarily. To apprehend the villagers one day black-watch regiment demonstrated their activities. Lalita Barari and Haren Sen were always watched by strong Police men. Thereafter, they were kept under internal custody. Headmaster, Atul Sen and Headmaster Hemendra Mukhuti both were no exception. There were many others who were also on the list of the suspected persons in the British police diary. In fact Sonarang occupied a special place in the national movement and revolutionary activities. Rawlatt Saheb has described that Sonarang was a main centre of revolutionaries in East Bengal. I have reproduced some portion of this report at the end of the book: Before the National School stopped functioning, Makhan Sen left the village and was disguise later. It can be referred to here that nephew of Makhan Sen, Sachin Sen (son of Deben Sen) was one of the delinquents in the famous "Alipore Bomb Suit". After he was freed he became a sage of Rama Krishna Mission. The aim of the National School was not only to expedite the revolutionary work but one of the aims was how to give proper education to the nation and with that end in view work was started. It was established in 1908 and wound up in 1911. Two students - Biren Sen of our village and Siren Sen of Netrabati village - passed Entrance examination from this School. But University of Calcutta did not give recognisation to this School. But as a National College was established in Jadavpur, the students of the School could be admitted there even if Calcutta did not accept them. This National College of Jadavpur has turned into the Jadavpur University later on. Siren Sen passed BSc from this. National College and then joined job at Bombay. He retired as Deputy Chief Chemist of G1P Railway.
